southsider2k5 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 It will be interesting to see specifically what happens to Chris Sale over the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 It kind of scares me that the process is so personal. Basically, when Herm goes, we lose this. It's just people trusting him and him being organized and responsible. That's an incredible heap of praise, but you'd like something a bit more institutional. It kind of seems the same with Coop. He just seems to have a great eye/emphasis on getting pitchers out when their mechanics get out of whack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how much Herm has replicated himself, but at least with Cooper we know that he has created a lot of other pitching coaches through the minors, and even a guy like Nieves.

Sale may believe 100% in Schneider's method and would be foolish to change it. On the other hand innings and wear and tear pile up so even if he has a major injury there wouldn't be a way to pinpoint why . Time has proven Herm's method as reliable but like everything else not foolproof . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has learned under Herm just as the article discusses how he learned. While Herm is excellent at what he does, there is an "institutional" component as you say because they follow it in the minors as well.
